Still has alluringly exotic hint of Greece to it

Any form of government that elevated Robert Mugabe to power can’t be all bad
The Rock gets a say
Can sublimate rage from custody battle into civic engagement
One more thing we have that salamanders don’t
CON
Candidates always too good to pick just one
Myanmar getting by just fine without it
Online poll named our baby “Jughead”
The Irish get a say
Puts Peter Thiel in one of his moods
Never get to shout “His Majesty shall hear of this!”
